Complete classification of pseudo <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-type Lie algebras: I

Let \({\mathscr {N}}\) be a 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra endowed with a non-degenerate scalar product \(\langle .\,,.\rangle \), and let \({\mathscr {N}}=V\oplus _{\perp }Z\), where Z is the centre of the Lie algebra and V its orthogonal complement. We study classification of the Lie algebras for which the space V arises as a representation space of the Clifford algebra \({{\mathrm{{\mathrm{Cl}}}}}({\mathbb {R}}^{r,s})\), and the representation map \(J:{{\mathrm{{\mathrm{Cl}}}}}({\mathbb {R}}^{r,s})\rightarrow {{\mathrm{End}}}(V)\) is related to the Lie algebra structure by \(\langle J_zv,w\rangle =\langle z,[v,w]\rangle \) for all \(z\in {\mathbb {R}}^{r,s}\) and \(v,w\in V\). The classification depends on parameters r and s and is completed for the Clifford modules V having minimal possible dimension, that are not necessary irreducible. We find necessary conditions for the existence of a Lie algebra isomorphism according to the range of the integer parameters \(0\le r,s<\infty \). We present a constructive proof for the isomorphism maps for isomorphic Lie algebras and determine the class of non-isomorphic Lie algebras.     

An <Emphasis Type="Italic">A</Emphasis>-invariant subspace for bipartite distance-regular graphs with exactly two irreducible <Emphasis Type="Italic">T</Emphasis>-modules with endpoint 2, both thin

Let \(\Gamma \) denote a bipartite distance-regular graph with vertex set X, diameter \(D \ge 4\), and valency \(k \ge 3\). Let \({{\mathbb {C}}}^X\) denote the vector space over \({{\mathbb {C}}}\) consisting of column vectors with entries in \({{\mathbb {C}}}\) and rows indexed by X. For \(z \in X\), let \({{\widehat{z}}}\) denote the vector in \({{\mathbb {C}}}^X\) with a 1 in the z-coordinate, and 0 in all other coordinates. Fix a vertex x of \(\Gamma \) and let \(T = T(x)\) denote the corresponding Terwilliger algebra. Assume that up to isomorphism there exist exactly two irreducible T-modules with endpoint 2, and they both are thin. Fix \(y \in X\) such that \(\partial (x,y)=2\), where \(\partial \) denotes path-length distance. For \(0 \le i,j \le D\) define \(w_{ij}=\sum {{\widehat{z}}}\), where the sum is over all \(z \in X\) such that \(\partial (x,z)=i\) and \(\partial (y,z)=j\). We define \(W=\mathrm{span}\{w_{ij} \mid 0 \le i,j \le D\}\). In this paper we consider the space \(MW=\mathrm{span}\{mw \mid m \in M, w \in W\}\), where M is the Bose–Mesner algebra of \(\Gamma \). We observe that MW is the minimal A-invariant subspace of \({{\mathbb {C}}}^X\) which contains W, where A is the adjacency matrix of \(\Gamma \). We show that \(4D-6 \le \mathrm{dim}(MW) \le 4D-2\). We display a basis for MW for each of these five cases, and we give the action of A on these bases.     

Ground State Solutions for Asymptotically Periodic Kirchhoff-Type Equations with Asymptotically Cubic or Super-cubic Nonlinearities

This paper is concerned with the following Kirchhoff-type equation

$$\begin{aligned} -\left( a+b\int _{\mathbb {R}^3}|\nabla {u}|^2\mathrm {d}x\right) \triangle u+V(x)u=f(x, u), \quad x\in \mathbb {R}^{3}, \end{aligned}$$

where \(V\in \mathcal {C}(\mathbb {R}^{3}, (0,\infty ))\), \(f\in \mathcal {C}({\mathbb {R}}^{3}\times \mathbb {R}, \mathbb {R})\), V(x) and f(x, t) are periodic or asymptotically periodic in x. Using weaker assumptions \(\lim _{|t|\rightarrow \infty }\frac{\int _0^tf(x, s)\mathrm {d}s}{|t|^3}=\infty \) uniformly in \(x\in \mathbb {R}^3\) and

$$\begin{aligned}&\left[ \frac{f(x,\tau )}{\tau ^3}-\frac{f(x,t\tau )}{(t\tau )^3} \right] \mathrm {sign}(1-t) +\theta _0V(x)\frac{|1-t^2|}{(t\tau )^2}\ge 0, \quad \\&\quad \forall x\in \mathbb {R}^3,\ t>0, \ \tau \ne 0 \end{aligned}$$

with a constant \(\theta _0\in (0,1)\), instead of the common assumption \(\lim _{|t|\rightarrow \infty }\frac{\int _0^tf(x, s)\mathrm {d}s}{|t|^4}=\infty \) uniformly in \(x\in \mathbb {R}^3\) and the usual Nehari-type monotonic condition on \(f(x,t)/|t|^3\), we establish the existence of Nehari-type ground state solutions of the above problem, which generalizes and improves the recent results of Qin et al. (Comput Math Appl 71:1524–1536, 2016) and Zhang and Zhang (J Math Anal Appl 423:1671–1692, 2015). In particular, our results unify asymptotically cubic and super-cubic nonlinearities.

     

Extremal Problems for Mappings with Generalized Parametric Representation in $${{\mathbb {C}}}^{n}$$

In this paper we are concerned with the family \(\widetilde{S}^t_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\) (\(t\ge 0\)) of normalized biholomorphic mappings on the Euclidean unit ball \(\mathbb {B}^n\) in \({\mathbb {C}}^n\) that can be embedded in normal Loewner chains whose normalizations are given by time-dependent operators \(A\in \widetilde{\mathcal {A}}\), where \(\widetilde{\mathcal {A}}\) is a family of measurable mappings from \([0,\infty )\) into \(L({\mathbb {C}}^n)\) which satisfy certain natural assumptions. In particular, we consider extreme points and support points associated with the compact family \(\widetilde{S}^t_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\), where \(A\in \widetilde{\mathcal {A}}\). We prove that if \(f(z,t)=V(t)^{-1}z+\cdots \) is a normal Loewner chain such that \(V(s)f(\cdot ,s)\in \mathrm{ex}\,\widetilde{S}^s_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\) (resp. \(V(s)f(\cdot ,s)\in \mathrm{supp}\,\widetilde{S}^s_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\)), then \(V(t)f(\cdot ,t)\in \mathrm{ex}\, \widetilde{S}^t_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\), for all \(t\ge s\) (resp. \(V(t)f(\cdot ,t)\in \mathrm{supp}\,\widetilde{S}^t_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\), for all \(t\ge s\)), where V(t) is the unique solution on \([0,\infty )\) of the initial value problem: \(\frac{d V}{d t}(t)=-A(t)V(t)\), a.e. \(t\ge 0\), \(V(0)=I_n\). Also, we obtain an example of a bounded support point for the family \(\widetilde{S}_A^t(\mathbb {B}^2)\), where \(A\in \widetilde{\mathcal {A}}\) is a certain time-dependent operator. We also consider the notion of a reachable family with respect to time-dependent linear operators \(A\in \widetilde{\mathcal {A}}\), and obtain characterizations of extreme/support points associated with these families of bounded biholomorphic mappings on \(\mathbb {B}^n\). Useful examples and applications yield that the study of the family \(\widetilde{S}^t_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\) for time-dependent operators \(A\in \widetilde{\mathcal {A}}\) is basically different from that in the case of constant time-dependent linear operators.     

Fredholmness of fringe operators over the bidisk

Let M be an invariant subspace of \(H^2\) over the bidisk. Associated with M, we have the fringe operator \(F^M_z\) on \(M\ominus w M\). For \(A\subset H^2\), let [A] denote the smallest invariant subspace containing A. Assume that \(F^M_z\) is Fredholm. If h is a bounded analytic function on \(\mathbb {D}^2\) satisfying \(h(0,0)\not =0\), then \(F^{[h M]}_z\) is Fredholm and \(\mathrm{ind}\,F^{[h M]}_z=\mathrm{ind}\,F^M_z\).     

Beatty sequences and prime numbers with restrictions on strongly <Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis>-additive functions

We estimate exponential sums over a non-homogenous Beatty sequence with restriction on strongly q-additive functions. We then apply our result in a few special cases to obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of primes \(p=\lfloor \alpha n +\beta \rfloor \) and \(f(p)\equiv a (\mathrm{mod\,}b)\), with \(n\ge N \), where \(\alpha \), \(\beta \) are real numbers and f is a strongly q-additive function (for example, the sum of digits function in base q is a strongly q-additive function). We also prove that for any fixed integer \(k\ge 3 \), all sufficiently large \(N\equiv k (\mathrm{mod\,}2) \) could be represented as a sum of k prime numbers from a Beatty sequence with restriction on strongly q-additive functions.     

Algebras of Convolution-Type Operators with Piecewise Slowly Oscillating Data on Weighted Lebesgue Spaces

Let \({\mathcal B}_{p,w}\) be the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators acting on the weighted Lebesgue space \(L^p(\mathbb {R},w)\), where \(p\in (1,\infty )\) and w is a Muckenhoupt weight. We study the Banach subalgebra \(\mathfrak {A}_{p,w}\) of \({\mathcal B}_{p,w}\) generated by all multiplication operators aI (\(a\in \mathrm{PSO}^\diamond \)) and all convolution operators \(W^0(b)\) (\(b\in \mathrm{PSO}_{p,w}^\diamond \)), where \(\mathrm{PSO}^\diamond \subset L^\infty (\mathbb {R})\) and \(\mathrm{PSO}_{p,w}^\diamond \subset M_{p,w}\) are algebras of piecewise slowly oscillating functions that admit piecewise slowly oscillating discontinuities at arbitrary points of \(\mathbb {R}\cup \{\infty \}\), and \(M_{p,w}\) is the Banach algebra of Fourier multipliers on \(L^p(\mathbb {R},w)\). For any Muckenhoupt weight w, we study the Fredholmness in the Banach algebra \({\mathcal Z}_{p,w}\subset \mathfrak {A}_{p,w}\) generated by the operators \(aW^0(b)\) with slowly oscillating data \(a\in \mathrm{SO}^\diamond \) and \(b\in \mathrm{SO}^\diamond _{p,w}\). Then, under some condition on the weight w, we complete constructing a Fredholm symbol calculus for the Banach algebra \(\mathfrak {A}_{p,w}\) in comparison with Karlovich and Loreto Hernández (Integr. Equations Oper. Theory 74:377–415, 2012) and Karlovich and Loreto Hernández (Integr. Equations Oper. Theory 75:49–86, 2013) and establish a Fredholm criterion for the operators \(A\in \mathfrak {A}_{p,w}\) in terms of their symbols. A new approach to determine local spectra is found.     

On Lipschitz continuity of solutions of hyperbolic Poisson’s equation

In this paper, we investigate solutions of the hyperbolic Poisson equation \(\Delta _{h}u(x)=\psi (x)\), where \(\psi \in L^{\infty }(\mathbb {B}^{n}, {\mathbb R}^n)\) and

$$\begin{aligned} \Delta _{h}u(x)= (1-|x|^2)^2\Delta u(x)+2(n-2)\left( 1-|x|^2\right) \sum _{i=1}^{n} x_{i} \frac{\partial u}{\partial x_{i}}(x) \end{aligned}$$

is the hyperbolic Laplace operator in the n-dimensional space \(\mathbb {R}^n\) for \(n\ge 2\). We show that if \(n\ge 3\) and \(u\in C^{2}(\mathbb {B}^{n},{\mathbb R}^n) \cap C(\overline{\mathbb {B}^{n}},{\mathbb R}^n )\) is a solution to the hyperbolic Poisson equation, then it has the representation \(u=P_{h}[\phi ]-G_{ h}[\psi ]\) provided that \(u\mid _{\mathbb {S}^{n-1}}=\phi \) and \(\int _{\mathbb {B}^{n}}(1-|x|^{2})^{n-1} |\psi (x)|\,d\tau (x)<\infty \). Here \(P_{h}\) and \(G_{h}\) denote Poisson and Green integrals with respect to \(\Delta _{h}\), respectively. Furthermore, we prove that functions of the form \(u=P_{h}[\phi ]-G_{h}[\psi ]\) are Lipschitz continuous.

     

Estimates for coefficients of certain <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis>-functions

Let \(\pi _{\varphi }\) (or \(\pi _{\psi }\)) be an automorphic cuspidal representation of \(\text {GL}_{2} (\mathbb {A}_{\mathbb {Q}})\) associated to a primitive Maass cusp form \(\varphi \) (or \(\psi \)), and \(\mathrm{sym}^j \pi _{\varphi }\) be the jth symmetric power lift of \(\pi _{\varphi }\). Let \(a_{\mathrm{sym}^j \pi _{\varphi }}(n)\) denote the nth Dirichlet series coefficient of the principal L-function associated to \(\mathrm{sym}^j \pi _{\varphi }\). In this paper, we study first moments of Dirichlet series coefficients of automorphic representations \(\mathrm{sym}^3 \pi _{\varphi }\) of \(\text {GL}_{4}(\mathbb {A}_{\mathbb {Q}})\), and \(\pi _{\psi }\otimes \mathrm{sym}^2 \pi _{\varphi }\) of \(\text {GL}_{6}(\mathbb {A}_{\mathbb {Q}})\). For \(3 \le j \le 8\), estimates for \(|a_{\mathrm{sym}^j \pi _{\varphi }}(n)|\) on average over a short interval have also been established.     

Least energy sign-changing solutions for a class of fourth order Kirchhoff-type equations in $$\mathbb {R}^{N}$$

In this article we study the problem

$$\begin{aligned} \Delta ^{2}u-\left( a+b\int _{\mathbb {R}^{N}}\left| \nabla u\right| ^{2}dx\right) \Delta u+V(x)u=\left| u\right| ^{p-2}u\ \text { in }\mathbb {R}^{N}, \end{aligned}$$

where \(\Delta ^{2}:=\Delta (\Delta )\) is the biharmonic operator, \(a,b>0\) are constants, \(N\le 7,\) \(p\in (4,2_{*})\) for \(2_{*}\) defined below, and \(V(x)\in C(\mathbb {R}^{N},\mathbb {R})\). Under appropriate assumptions on V(x), the existence of least energy sign-changing solution is obtained by combining the variational methods and the Nehari method.

     

Couplings of Brownian Motions of Deterministic Distance in Model Spaces of Constant Curvature

We consider the model space \(\mathbb {M}^{n}_{K}\) of constant curvature K and dimension \(n\ge 1\) (Euclidean space for \(K=0\), sphere for \(K>0\) and hyperbolic space for \(K<0\)), and we show that given a function \(\rho :[0,\infty )\rightarrow [0, \infty )\) with \(\rho (0)=\mathrm {dist}(x,y)\) there exists a coadapted coupling (X(t), Y(t)) of Brownian motions on \(\mathbb {M}^{n}_{K}\) starting at (x, y) such that \(\rho (t)=\mathrm {dist}(X(t),Y(t))\) for every \(t\ge 0\) if and only if \(\rho \) is continuous and satisfies for almost every \(t\ge 0\) the differential inequality

$$\begin{aligned} -(n-1)\sqrt{K}\tan \left( \tfrac{\sqrt{K}\rho (t)}{2}\right) \le \rho '(t)\le -(n-1)\sqrt{K}\tan \left( \tfrac{\sqrt{K}\rho (t)}{2}\right) +\tfrac{2(n-1)\sqrt{K}}{\sin (\sqrt{K}\rho (t))}. \end{aligned}$$

In other words, we characterize all coadapted couplings of Brownian motions on the model space \(\mathbb {M}^{n}_{K}\) for which the distance between the processes is deterministic. In addition, the construction of the coupling is explicit for every choice of \(\rho \) satisfying the above hypotheses.

     

Polynomially peripheral range-preserving maps between Banach algebras

Let A and B be two Banach function algebras and p a two variable polynomial \(p(z,w)=zw+az+bw+c\), (\(a,b,c\in {\mathbb {C}}\)). We characterize the general form of a surjection \(T: A \longrightarrow B\) which satisfies \(\mathrm{Ran}_\pi (p(Tf,Tg))\cap \mathrm{Ran}_\pi (p(f,g))\ne \emptyset , (f,g\in A\) and \(c\ne ab)\), where \(\mathrm{Ran}_\pi (f)\) is the peripheral range of f.     

Random Walks in the Hyperbolic Plane and the Minkowski Question Mark Function

Consider \(G=SL_2(\mathbb {Z})/\{\pm I\}\) acting on the complex upper half plane H by \(h_M(z)=\frac{az\,+\,b}{cz\,+\,d}\) for \(M \in G\). Let \(D=\{z \in H: |z|\ge 1, |\mathfrak {R}(z)|\le 1/2\}\). We consider the set \({\mathcal {E}} \subset G\) with the nine elements M, different from the identity, such that \(\mathrm{tr\,}(MM^T)\le 3\). We equip the tiling of H defined by \(\mathbb {D}=\{h_M(D){:}\, M \in G\}\) with a graph structure where the neighbours are defined by \(h_M(D) \cap h_{M'}(D) \ne \emptyset \), equivalently \(M^{-1}M' \in {\mathcal {E}}\). The present paper studies several Markov chains related to the above structure. We show that the simple random walk on the above graph converges a.s. to a point X of the real line with the same distribution of \(S_2 W^{S_1}\), where \(S_1,S_2,W\) are independent with \(\Pr (S_i=\pm 1)=1/2\) and where W is valued in (0, 1) with distribution \(\Pr (W<w)=\mathbf ? (w)\). Here \(\mathbf ? \) is the Minkowski function. If \(K_1, K_2, \ldots \) are i.i.d with distribution \(\Pr (K_i=n)= 1/2^n\) for \(n=1,2,\ldots \), then \(W= \frac{1}{K_1+\frac{1}{K_2+\ldots }}\): this known result (Isola in Appl Math 5:1067–1090, 2014) is derived again here.     

A Characterization Theorem for the $$L^{2}$$-Discrepancy of Integer Points in Dilated Polygons

Let C be a convex d-dimensional body. If \(\rho \) is a large positive number, then the dilated body \(\rho C\) contains \(\rho ^{d}\left| C\right| +\mathcal {O}\left( \rho ^{d-1}\right) \) integer points, where \(\left| C\right| \) denotes the volume of C. The above error estimate \(\mathcal {O}\left( \rho ^{d-1}\right) \) can be improved in several cases. We are interested in the \(L^{2}\)-discrepancy \(D_{C}(\rho )\) of a copy of \(\rho C\) thrown at random in \(\mathbb {R}^{d}\). More precisely, we consider

Open image in new window

where \(\mathbb {T}^{d}=\) \(\mathbb {R}^{d}/\mathbb {Z}^{d}\) is the d-dimensional flat torus and \(SO\left( d\right) \) is the special orthogonal group of real orthogonal matrices of determinant 1. An argument of Kendall shows that \(D_{C}(\rho )\le c\ \rho ^{(d-1)/2}\). If C also satisfies the reverse inequality \(\ D_{C}(\rho )\ge c_{1} \ \rho ^{(d-1)/2}\), we say that C is \(L^{2}\) -regular. Parnovski and Sobolev proved that, if \(d>1\), a d-dimensional unit ball is \(L^{2} \)-regular if and only if \(d\not \equiv 1\ ({\text {mod}}4)\). In this paper we characterize the \(L^{2}\)-regular convex polygons. More precisely, we prove that a convex polygon is not \(L^{2}\)-regular if and only if it can be inscribed in a circle and it is symmetric about the centre.

     

Lower order eigenvalues of a system of equations of the drifting Laplacian on the metric measure spaces

Let \(\Omega \) be a bounded domain with smooth boundary in an n-dimensional metric measure space \((\mathbb {R}^n, \langle ,\rangle , e^{-\phi }dv)\) and let \(\mathbf {u}=(u^1, \ldots , u^n)\) be a vector-valued function from \(\Omega \) to \(\mathbb {R}^n\). In this paper, we investigate the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem of a system of equations of the drifting Laplacian: \(\mathbb {L}_{\phi } \mathbf {u} + \alpha [ \nabla (\mathrm {div}\mathbf { u}) -\nabla \phi \mathrm {div} \mathbf {u}]= - \widetilde{\sigma } \mathbf {u}\), in \( \Omega \), and \(u|_{\partial \Omega }=0,\) where \(\mathbb {L}_{\phi } = \Delta - \nabla \phi \cdot \nabla \) is the drifting Laplacian and \(\alpha \) is a nonnegative constant. We establish some universal inequalities for lower order eigenvalues of this problem on the metric measure space \((\mathbb {R}^n, \langle ,\rangle , e^{-\phi }dv)\) and the Gaussian shrinking soliton \((\mathbb {R}^n, \langle ,\rangle _{\mathrm {can}}, e^{-\frac{|x|^2}{4}}dv, \frac{1}{2})\). Moreover, we give an estimate for the upper bound of the second eigenvalue of this problem in terms of its first eigenvalue on the gradient product Ricci soliton \((\Sigma \times \mathbb {R}, \langle ,\rangle , e^{-\frac{\kappa t^2}{2}}dv, \kappa )\), where \( \Sigma \) is an Einstein manifold with constant Ricci curvature \(\kappa \).     

Multilicity results for some nonlinear ellitic roblems with asymtotically $${{\varvec{}}}$$-linear terms

Taking any \(p > 1\), we consider the asymptotically p-linear problem

$$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} - {{\mathrm{div}}}(a(x,u,\nabla u)) + A_t(x,u,\nabla u)\ = \ \lambda ^\infty |u|^{p-2}u + g^\infty (x,u) &{}\quad \hbox {in}\;\Omega ,\\ u\ = \ 0 &{}\quad \hbox {on}\;\partial \Omega , \end{array} \right. \end{aligned}$$

where \(\Omega \) is a bounded domain in \(\mathbb R^N\), \(N\ge 2\), \(A(x,t,\xi )\) is a real function on \(\Omega \times \mathbb R\times \mathbb R^N\) which grows with power p with respect to \(\xi \) and has partial derivatives \(A_t(x,t,\xi ) = \frac{\partial A}{\partial t}(x,t,\xi )\), \(a(x,t,\xi ) = \nabla _\xi A(x,t,\xi )\). If \(A(x,t,\xi ) \rightarrow A^\infty (x,t)\) and \(\frac{g^\infty (x,t)}{|t|^{p-1}} \rightarrow 0\) as \(|t| \rightarrow +\infty \), suitable assumptions, variational methods and either the cohomological index theory or its related pseudo-index one, allow us to prove the existence of multiple nontrivial bounded solutions in the non-resonant case, i.e. if \(\lambda ^\infty \) is not an eigenvalue of the operator associated to \(\nabla _\xi A^\infty (x,\xi )\). In particular, while in [14] the model problem \(A(x,t,\xi ) = \mathcal{A}(x,t) |\xi |^p\) with \(p > N\) is studied, here our goal is twofold: extending such results not only to a more general family of functions \(A(x,t,\xi )\), but also to the more difficult case \(1 < p \le N\).

     

The identification problem for complex-valued Ornstein–Uhlenbeck operators in $$L^p(\mathbb {R}^d,\mathbb {C}^N)$$

In this paper we study perturbed Ornstein–Uhlenbeck operators

$$\begin{aligned} \left[ \mathcal {L}_{\infty } v\right] (x)=A\triangle v(x) + \left\langle Sx,\nabla v(x)\right\rangle -B v(x),\,x\in \mathbb {R}^d,\,d\geqslant 2, \end{aligned}$$

for simultaneously diagonalizable matrices \(A,B\in \mathbb {C}^{N,N}\). The unbounded drift term is defined by a skew-symmetric matrix \(S\in \mathbb {R}^{d,d}\). Differential operators of this form appear when investigating rotating waves in time-dependent reaction diffusion systems. We prove under certain conditions that the maximal domain \(\mathcal {D}(A_p)\) of the generator \(A_p\) belonging to the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck semigroup coincides with the domain of \(\mathcal {L}_{\infty }\) in \(L^p(\mathbb {R}^d,\mathbb {C}^N)\) given by

$$\begin{aligned} \mathcal {D}^p_{\mathrm {loc}}(\mathcal {L}_0)=\left\{ v\in W^{2,p}_{\mathrm {loc}}\cap L^p\mid A\triangle v + \left\langle S\cdot ,\nabla v\right\rangle \in L^p\right\} ,\,1<p<\infty . \end{aligned}$$

One key assumption is a new \(L^p\)-dissipativity condition

$$\begin{aligned} |z|^2\mathrm {Re}\,\left\langle w,Aw\right\rangle + (p-2)\mathrm {Re}\,\left\langle w,z\right\rangle \mathrm {Re}\,\left\langle z,Aw\right\rangle \geqslant \gamma _A |z|^2|w|^2\;\forall \,z,w\in \mathbb {C}^N \end{aligned}$$

for some \(\gamma _A>0\). The proof utilizes the following ingredients. First we show the closedness of \(\mathcal {L}_{\infty }\) in \(L^p\) and derive \(L^p\)-resolvent estimates for \(\mathcal {L}_{\infty }\). Then we prove that the Schwartz space is a core of \(A_p\) and apply an \(L^p\)-solvability result of the resolvent equation for \(A_p\). In addition, we derive \(W^{1,p}\)-resolvent estimates. Our results may be considered as extensions of earlier works by Metafune, Pallara and Vespri to the vector-valued complex case.

     

An infinite sequence of localized semiclassical bound states for nonlinear Dirac equations

In this paper, we study the following nonlinear Dirac equation

$$\begin{aligned} -i\varepsilon \alpha \cdot \nabla u+a\beta u+V(x)u=|u|^{p-2}u,\ x\in \mathbb {R}^3, \ \mathrm{for}\ u\in H^1({{\mathbb {R}}}^3, {{\mathbb {C}}}^4), \end{aligned}$$

where \(p\in (2,3)\), \(a > 0\) is a constant, \(\alpha =(\alpha _1,\alpha _2,\alpha _3)\), \(\alpha _1,\alpha _2,\alpha _3\) and \(\beta \) are \(4\times 4\) Pauli–Dirac matrices. Under only a local condition that V has a local trapping potential well, when \(\varepsilon >0\) is sufficiently small, we construct an infinite sequence of localized bound state solutions concentrating around the local minimum points of V. These solutions are of higher topological type in the sense that they are obtained from a minimax characterization of higher dimensional symmetric linking structure. The existing work in the literature give finitely many such localized solutions depending on both the local behavior of the potential function V near the local minimum points of V and the global behavior of V at infinity.

     

Mixed Wavelet Leaders Multifractal Formalism in a Product of Critical Besov Spaces

In this paper, we will prove (resp. study) the Baire generic validity of the upper-Hölder (resp. iso-Hölder) mixed wavelet leaders multifractal formalism on a product of two critical Besov spaces \(B_{t_{1}}^{\frac{m}{t_{1}},q_{1}}(\mathbb {R}^m) \times B_{t_{2}}^{\frac{m}{t_{2}},q_{2}}(\mathbb {R}^m)\), for \(t_1,t_2>0\), \(q_1 \le 1\) and \(q_2 \le 1\). Contrary to product spaces \(B_{t_{1}}^{s_{1},\infty }(\mathbb {R}^m) \times B_{t_{2}}^{s_{2},\infty }(\mathbb {R}^m) \) with \(s_{1} > \frac{m}{t_{1}}\) and \(s_{2} >\frac{m}{t_{2}}\) (Ben Slimane in Mediterr J Math, 13(4):1513–1533, 2016) and \((B_{t_{1}}^{s_{1},\infty }(\mathbb {R}^m) \cap C^{\gamma _{1}}(\mathbb {R}^m)) \times (B_{t_{2}}^{s_{2},\infty }(\mathbb {R}^m) \cap C^{\gamma _{2}}(\mathbb {R}^m)\) with \(0<\gamma _{1}<s_{1}<\frac{m}{t_{1}}\) and \(0<\gamma _{2}<s_{2}<\frac{m}{t_{2}}\) (Ben Abid et al. in Mediterr J Math, 13(6):5093–5118, 2016), all pairs of functions in the obtained generic set are not uniform Hölder. Nevertheless, the characterization of the upper bound of the Hölder exponent by decay conditions of local wavelet leaders suffices for our study.
